A student walks from his house at a speed of 2.5 km/h and reaches his school 6 min late. The next day he increases his speed by 1 km/h and reaches 6 min before school time. How far is the school from his house?

A$$\frac{5}{4} km$$

B$$\frac{7}{4} km $$

C$$\frac{9}{4}km$$

D$$\frac{11}{4}km$$

Nithin K ? Apr 7 '2018 at 20:28

Answer is \(\frac{7}{4} km\)

Explanation:

 

Let the distance be x km  

\(\text{Distance in timings =12 min =}\frac{12}{60}\text{ hr}=\frac{1}{5} \text{hr} \)

\(\therefore \frac{2x}{5}-\frac{2x}{7}=\frac{1}{5} \)

\(14x-10x=7\)

\(x = 1\frac{3}{4}\text{ km}\)
\(x= \frac{7}{4}\text{ km}\)
